CONDITIONS OF SALE 


I. REJECTION OF BIDS: Any bid which is not commensurate with 
the value of the article offered, or which is merely a nominal or fractional 
advance, may be rejected by the auctioneer if in his judgment such bid would 
be likely to affect the sale injuriously. 


fil. THE BUYER: ‘The highest bidder shall be the buyer, and if any 
dispute arises between two or more bidders, the auctioneer shall either decide 
the same or put up for re-sale the lot so in dispute. 


III. IDENTIFICATION AND DEPOSIT BY BUYER: The name of the 
buyer of each lot shall be given immediately on the sale thereof, and when so 
required, each buyer shall sign a card giving the lot number, amount for 
which sold, and his or her name and address. 

A deposit at the actual time of the sale shall be made of all or such part 
of the purchase prices as may be required. 

If the two foregoing conditions are not complied with, the lot or lots so 
purchased may at the option of the auctioneer be put up again and re-sold. 


IV. RISK AFTER PURCHASE: Title passes upon the fall of the 
auctioneer’s hammer, and \thereafter the property is at the purchaser’s risk, 
and neither the consignor nor the Association is responsible for the loss of, 
or any damage to any article by theft, fire, breakage, however occasioned, or 
any other cause whatsoever. 


V. DELIVERY OF PURCHASES: Delivery of any purchases will be 
made only upon payment of the total amount due for all purchases at the sale. 


VI. RECEIPTED BILLS: Goods will only be delivered on presentation 
of a receipted bill. A receipted bill presented by any person will be recog- 
nized and honored as an order by the buyer, directing the delivery to the 
bearer of the goods described thereon. If a receipted bill is lost before 
delivery of the property has been taken, the buyer should immediately notify 
the Association of such loss. 


VII. STORAGE IN DEFAULT OF PROMPT PAYMENT ANT 
CALLING FOR GOODS: Articles not paid for in full and not called for by 
the purchaser or agent by noon of the day following that of the sale may 
be turned over by the Association to some carter to be carried to and stored 
in some warehouse until the time of the delivery therefrom to the pur- 
chaser, and the cost of such cartage and storage and any other charges will 
be charged against the purchaser and the risk of loss or damage occasioned 
by such removal or storage will be upon the purchaser. 

In any instance where the purchase bill has not been paid in full by

hold the buyer responsible for any deficiency and all losses and expenses sus- 
tained in so doing. 


VIII. SHIPPING: Shipping, boxing or wrapping of purchases is a busi-

reasonable rates carriers and packers; doing so, however, without any assump- 
tion of responsibility on its part for the acts and charges of the parties engaged 
for such service. 


TX. GUARANTY: ‘The Association exercises great care to catalogue 
every lot correctly and endeavors therein and also at the actual time of sale 
to point out any error, defect or imperfection, but guaranty is not made either 
by the owner or the Association of the correctness of the description, genu- 
ineness, authenticity or condition of any lot and no sale will be set aside on 
account of any incorrectness, error of cataloguing or imperfection not noted 
or pointed out. Every lot is sold “‘as is” and without recourse. 

Every lot is on public exhibition one or more days prior to its sale, and 
the Association will give consideration to the opinion of any trustworthy expert 
to the effect that any lot has been incorrectly catalogued and in its judg- 
ment may thereafter sell the lot as catalogued or make mention of the opinion 
of such expert, who thereby will become responsible for such damage as might 
result were his opinion without foundation. 


X. RECORDS: ‘The records of the auctioneer and the Association are 
in all cases to be considered final and the highest bid shall in all cases be 
accepted by both buyer and seller as the value against which all claims for 
losses or damage shall lie. 


XI. BUYING ON ORDER: Buying or bidding by the Association for 
responsible parties on orders transmitted to it by mail, telegraph, or~ tele- 
phone, if conditions permit, will be faithfully attended to without charge or 
commission. Any purchases so made will be subject to the foregoing condi- 
tions of sale, except that, in the event of a purchase of a lot of one or more 
books by or for a purchaser’ who has not through himself or his agent been 
present at the exhibition or sale, the Association will permit such lot to be 
returned within ten days from the date of sale, and the purchase money will 
be refunded, if the lot differs from its catalogue description. 

Orders for execution by the Association should be given with such clear- 
ness as to leave no room for misunderstanding. Not only should the lot num- 
ber be given, but also the title, and bids should be stated to be so much for 
the lot, and when the lot consists of one or more volumes of books or objects 
of art, the bid per volume or piece should also be stated. If the one trans- 
mitting the order is unknown to the Association, a deposit must be sent or 
reference submitted. Shipping directions should also be given. 

PRICED CATALOGUES: Priced copies of the catalogue, or any session 
thereof, will be furnished by the Association at charges commensurate with 


the duties involved in copying the necessary information from the records of 
the Association. 


‘These conditions of sale cannot be altered except by the auctioneer or 
by an officer of the Association.

AUCTIONEERS 


FOREWORD 


Y reason of the disposal of the Vincent Astor residence at 
Sixty-ffth Street and Fifth Avenue, the contents of the 
house have been consigned by Mr. Astor to the American 
Art Association, Inc., for unrestricted sale under its man- 
agement. 

The architecture of this magnificent residence is that of a chateau 


of the time of Francois ler, and it is known as one of the most notable 
residences of New York. Completed in 1895, it has been regarded as 


one of the landmarks of New York, its imposing facade, with its superb 


gates, expressing an extreme beauty of proportion and artistic merit. 


The sale will be conducted on the premises (840 Fifth Avenue), 


and the objects will be exhibited practically in the same manner as 
throughout the occupancy of their owners. ‘The inner bronze gates, 
together with the entire removable fittings, and the paneling of the 
| house, comprising carved woodwork, decorative canvases, wall sconces, 


and the like, form an important feature of the sale. The walls of the 


atrium, or reception hall, are paneled with canvases after Brussels car- 
toons. Immediately facing the entrance is a beautifully proportioned 
picture gallery, with its elaborately painted and gilded ceiling, containing 
‘the hundred and more paintings to be offered. ‘These are mainly of the 
| nineteenth century French school, embracing works by Corot, Diaz, 
van Marcke, Detaille, Bouguereau, Lefebvre, Berne-Bellecour and 


Troyon, collected by the Astor family over a long period of time. In 
the two drawing rooms, distinguished by the beauty of the superbly 


_earved oak paneling, the painted insets and ceilings, are fine tapes- 
tries and the magnificent Italian marble mantelpieces in the Louis Qua- 


torze style. ‘There are several important carved and gilded brocade 


‘suites, together with marqueterie commodes (including examples by 


Paul Sormani and H. Nelson), consoles, guéridons and the like, and a 
dining-room suite of over thirty chairs. 


Six superb Brussels tapestries of the seventeenth century include 
The Visit of Cyrus to the Defeated Croesus and The Tribute of the 
Kings to Cyrus, by Jacob van Zeunen (privileged 1644), a magnificent 
Caesar in Gaul by Geraert van der Streecken and The Flight of Pompey 
by Guillaume van Leefdael, son of the famous weaver Jan van Leefdael. 

Among the smaller objects are several important clock garnitures, 
a number of marble statuettes, bronzes, Sévres porcelains and two mag- 
nificent famille rose temple jars, together with a quantity of silverware, 
including table garnitures, a solid silver dinner service, and a George 180! 
tea and coffee service.

hand is the flame, while at his heels crouches the eagle. In the right middle
